Chapter 609: Catherine's Past
Actually, the best way to prevent Tanoyu Kyou from leaking information is to get her on board as well.
Once she dares to reveal the matter between Su Chen and Minako Ozawa, it would be tantamount to exposing herself.
If this comes to the Buddha's knowledge, the consequences...
She was clear about it.
Although she had not arrived at the villa when that woman was punished, she had heard plenty about the woman's tragic fate.
In the end, she was even cemented and sunk into the sea.
The possibility of dying here and now or dying later is something even a fool knows how to choose.
Originally, when Minako Ozawa took the risk alone, she was very afraid inside.
Now with Tanoyu Kyou's involvement, even if she were to die, there would be someone to back her.
Besides, her relationship with Tanoyu Kyou was the best.
In a place full of intrigues, where one might not survive the slightest misstep, it's always good to have one more ally.
Since both of them were on board already, it was impossible for them to betray each other.
And Su Chen, though capable of getting some information through them, it was very difficult to reach the core of it.
Only two people were closest to the Buddha lately.
Catherine, and the big black girl.
Especially Catherine, who held an extraordinary status in the estate.
To know more, Catherine was a must-have.
However, these two women also provided Su Chen with some news.
That was, the Buddha did not truly trust him yet.
Once the Buddha trusted him, he would take him for business rather than leave him in the villa.
Still doesn't trust him?
After today, he should be trusted, right?
It was clear that it was no coincidence that he and Horses' Fortune were ambushed by Bloody Widow while delivering goods in the evening.
After all, the only people who knew he would be delivering goods at that time were the Buddha, Horses' Fortune, and himself.
How come he ran into Bloody Widow?
A little bit of thought and it was obvious that the Buddha must've leaked it intentionally.
To test Su Chen.
That's why Su Chen didn't flee with the goods, and instead, he later risked his life to go back and rescue people from Bloody Widow.
Su Chen could have escaped with the goods and sold them, earning millions. In a place like Jin San where the cost of living isn't that high, he could have comfortably lived for the rest of his life.
If the Buddha still doesn't trust him after such an experience, it could only mean that the Buddha is being too cautious.
"By the way, how long has Catherine been with the Buddha? Why does he value her so much?" Although he couldn't get any information related to Heavenly from the two women, he still managed to find out quite a lot.
When Su Chen asked about Catherine, Minako Ozawa was slightly annoyed.
But Tanoyu Kyou, on the other hand, was like opening a can of worms.
Truly living up to her nickname of a gossip.
"That's how it is..."
After hearing Tanoyu Kyou's words, Su Chen understood.
It turns out Catherine had been with the Buddha since she was little.
Raised by the Buddha's own hand.
Su Chen suddenly realized, no wonder the Buddha trusted Catherine so much.
At the same time, he also understood why Catherine was so loyal to the Buddha.
In her heart, perhaps the Buddha was already like a father figure to her?
But if he's a father, why would he hit his own daughter?
A beating can be understood; after all, when the daughter makes a mistake, the father has the right to punish.
But when there's no mistake, he still hits her.
"Catherine indeed regards the Buddha as her father, but unfortunately, the Buddha didn't consider her as a daughter..." When it came to gossip, Tanoyu Kyou just couldn't stop talking.
Completely forgetting that she nearly died at their hands before.
Upon learning about Catherine, Su Chen suddenly felt a bit of pity for the woman who always maintained a cold face.
She lost her family as a child and then was adopted by the Buddha.
She thought she had a family again and received paternal care.
But to her surprise, the father she regarded as such didn't consider her as his daughter...
It was nothing when she was younger.
But as she grew into adulthood, the Buddha's true nature was revealed.
This was certainly a huge blow to Catherine.
The saddest part is that she couldn't even fight back...
Su Chen finally understood why Catherine was always cold to others.
It was a form of self-protection after being hurt.
If she couldn't even trust her own father, who could she trust?
